yes... but whats written in the bible isnt even a first hand account. You are making a bad comparison. You are trying to compare the bible to written accounts of events that were put on paper as they happened. Even with these events we cant know for sure. The best we can do is verify the story from various accounts, and take maliable evidence into account then form a conclusion. No such thing canbe done with the bible. Also Atlantis is another bad example, there are some things that Plato (sp?) wrote that have been proven to be historical, such as troy. There is however the fact that one of his works is historical does not prove that all are. | |

that doesnt fix anything.. no sane adult believse in santa claus (the character that lives on the north pole and has a team of umpa lumpas making toys for all the lil kids... cuz we all know that asians make all the cool toys, yes they are short in stature, but not quite elfs.) We do however know of a historical figure that did hand outs toys to kids and put lumps of coal in the stockings of bad ones as a sort of trick. So theres really no mistery here. | |

rabid, all I can say is you are dodging questions and being sketchy. I did not ask you all that. I really dispise christians that tell me that if you dont except jesus christ as your savior you are going to hell, then when you present them with an inteligent question they go on babling about this and that and how its written in the bible and not thier words but gods. I really dont want to get mean here, but grow some fucking balls and own up to your beliefs. | |

Ok let me fill you guys in. There is a God, but not the way in which most people think. Religions were created to try and answer the question, "What is the purpose of life?" Without the answer to this question being that a supreme being created life and watches over us, humans find that they cannot function properly as the only other answer is that we are alive only by chance; it was luck that created us. |

right... the way you remember it, as in the way you interprited it as you read it. Im not saying your interpritation is wrong, however its not the word of the bible, no matter what way you spin it. | |

Truthfully, probably 90% or better on here dont want to see scripture quoted. And I dont blame them, because then they fill christianity is being forced down their throat. And it shouldnt be that way. Christianity is a way of life that is taken by choice of your own. And the last thing I want or would want is for someone to think I or any one else is trying to shove their beliefs off on anyone. Whether that belief is in GOD or not in GOD. | |

yes, those passages are all great, but still does not list accepting jesus christ as ones savior as a prerequisite into heaven. | |

rabid, I understand how you feel about quoting scripture, and I agree. But if anyone gets on you about it, they can come talk to me instead. I asked for it and it pertains to our discussion. You are not openly quoting random scripture or trying to force it on everyone, we know this. | |

Boost, I did not mean to insult you, that was not my intention. I in fact think you are a wise individual. Not only from post I've read of yours but also from our past pm discussion we had. I in no way ment to be insulting towards you. I probably just misunderstood what you were asking. Sometimes you just have to draw a picture for me. | |

The word used in word in the the old hebreew texts which was translated into "hell" (which I believe was Shaol, but I could be slightly off.. its been a while..) is thought to be misinterpreted and should actually be something closer to "grave" or "pit". | |

I really enjoy all of this 'who's going to heaven' talk, because, the funny thing about that is, it's sure as hell not the christians (outside of those select "chosen" few). the reason. if you were to read the book of revelation, it clearly states that 144000 people, 12000 from each of the 12 tribes of israel will be chosen, and will have the lords name inscribed on their heads. and all those who do not have the sign of the lord on their heads will be beset with 7 plagues. they will enter into heaven. so most of you christians, not going. it also said that they were virgins, so good luck to all of you who went out to try and 'be fruitful and multiply', suckers. |
